Importance Of PVC Pipe And Fittings To The
World
As thermoplastic polymers go, PVC orpolyvinyl
chloride must be one of the most widely used all
around the world. A wide variety of industries
use PVC due to its durability and affordability.
Nowhere is this truer than in the construction
industry where PVC pipe and fittings are
extensively used for plumbing systems in the
building of new homes. The development of PVC
has been somewhat chequered and the
popularity we see today has taken a long time to
come into fruition. The first PVC was developed
by the B.F Goodrich Company around ninety
years ago. The work of this company however

had limitations, PVC at the time was not as

versatile as it is now, and originally the material
was regarded as being brittle and unworkable.
Thanks to the work of B.F Goodrich however the
PVC pipe and fittings we sec today came that
little bit closer to existence. After combining
plasticizing agents with the original material its
uses became far more diverse. This combination
of plastics and vinyl meant that this modem PVC
was malleable and could be adapted to a variety
of different purposes. In addition to malleability
however, it was the long lasting nature and
strength which led to the construction industry
realizing the benefits of this wonder material.
Unlike copper and other metals, PVC pipe and its
fittings will never rot, rust is not a problem and
hence, after installation costs, maintenance costs
are largely non-existent. Even after the
combination of plasticizing agents PVC did not
become widely used industries found it hard to
find suitable applications for at least another
decade. Many
for this material, despite its
obvious qualities. The first uses for the material
could not be further removed from the
construction industry. Early tyre manufacturers
started using PVC for the tread on tyres as they
would last longer.

HISTORY

Plastics pipe products cover a wide range

including:
1. electrical and communications conduit,
2. pressure pipe for water, gas, wastewater and
industrial process fluids,
3. non pressure pipes for drainage, sewer, DWV.
Today plastics pipe materials can be found in the
majority of pipe applications and in many cases
are used almost exclusively because of their
excellent
resistance
to
chemicals
and
environmental effects that have corroded and
fractured concrete, clay, steel and cast iron. They
are cost effective and have provided excellent
performance. Here is a brief history of the

development of plastics pipe materials in

Australia with the emphasis on the two main
materials
Polyvinyl
Chloride
(PVC)
and
Polyethylene (PE). There are many other
common plastics pipe materials including
Polypropylene (PP), Cross linked Polyethylene
(PEX), Polybutylene (PB) and to a lesser extent
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and
Polyamide (PA or better known as Nylon).
PVC
Vinyl Chloride was first prepared in a laboratory
in 1838 and polymerised Vinyl Chloride (or what
we now refer to as PVC) in the early 1870's by
Baumann, although its commercial success did
not start until the following century. The first PVC
pipes were manufactured in Germany in the
early 1930's being used in construction for the
Berlin Olympics facilities. Wavin has a sample of
this early PVC pipe on display at their factory in
Twist. These early PVC materials were derived
from coal and
acetylene and manufactured by extrusion.
Manufacturing advances in PVC production led to
the use of oil as a raw material which in turn led
to mass production in the period after WW II. This
coincided with major post war shortages of

conventional materials such as steel and natural

rubber which forced industries to look at
synthetic materials.
Berlin, Oil, Sewerage
A Belgian company converted twin-screw Italian
pasta machines to extruders suitable for
processing PVC and this led to PVC pipe being
used to replace steel in electrical conduits and
attracted interest from a Dutch provincial water
authority which was the genesis of Wavin - now
an international pipe and fitting company. In the
1950's, as in Europe, production of rigid or
unplasticised PVC pipe in Australia started as
electrical conduit.
Conduit

Australian PVC pipe manufacture commenced

relatively late, possibly influenced by local PVC
resin manufacture which started in 1954. By
1960 PVC had been used very extensively
elsewhere in the world - Japan had 6,1,0001uns
of PVC water pipe in service with 10 years
experience, while Italy, Germany, and Holland
had 32,000kms, 16,000kms, and 8,000 kms of
pipe installed with 12 years, 25 years, and 9
years experience respectively. Vinidex was
founded in 1960 and immediately manufactured
PVC conduit from twin screw extruders
developing what was for years the biggest
application
for
PVC
pipe,
namely
telecommunication conduits for the PMG (now
Telstra) replacing asbestos cement pipes. Humes
Ltd. were also active in a joint venture with a
Japanese company Sekisui which provided PVC
pipe
technology
including
raw
materials
and
extruders.

Iplex,
an
established
plastics
fabrication
company in Adelaide seeing a trend towards
above- ground plumbing in the UK followed suit
and developed a range of PVC fittings to replace
cast iron and lead soil waste and vent systems.
Also around this time Hardie Extrusions was
formed. Other notable companies of this era that
pioneered PVC pipes and fittings production
included ACI-Nylex, Knox Schlapp (RKS), ACISloane, Vinlon,and Gay-Dor.
The success and growth in plasticspipe systems
resulted in several mergers and acquisitions over
the ensuing years. ACI-Nylex, ACI-Sloane and
Vinlon were acquired by Humes Ltd. Humes Ltd.
Plastics Division was subsequently sold in 1989
with part of the business being acquired by
Vinidex and the remainder by Hardie Iplex.
Hardie Extrusions absorbed Iplex Plastics and
GavDor to become Hardie Iplex Plastics which in
turn acquired Knox Schlapp (and part of flumes)
to ultimately become Hardie Iplex Pipelines in
the early 90's. When the Crane Group and Wavin
acquired the company it became Iplcx Pipelines.

The ease and speed of installation of the new

PVC system in field trials created wide trade and
Government interest, leading to the development
of Australian Standards K138 for pressure and
non-pressure pipes, A159 for pressure fittings,
and A160 for non-pressure fittings. These
Standards were largely based on the British
standards. The first Australian PVC sewer lining
project was undertaken by the Mildura Sewerage
Authority in 1964 where a 30 year old concrete
sewer that had suffered extensive attack by
hydrogen sulphide and was collapsing. The
product used was supplied by Humes and known
as "S-Lon". The project was a complete success
and repeated on another Mildura sewer in 1968.
Inspections in 1979 confirmed the relined sewer
was in perfect condition with no degradation or
root intrusion.

Manufacture of PVC pipe for water supply

commenced in the mid 60's, when the State
Rivers and Water Supply Commission of Victoria
(SR&WSC) conducted an installation ill Bendigo.
This followed a trial installation for domestic and
stock water supply. at Rainbow West using
imported Cellulose Acetate Butyrate (CAB) pipe.
Full approval for urban reticulation was afforded
by SR&WSC in 1967.
The Public Works Department (PWD) in NSW first
used PVC in 1967 in Merriwa Shire and followed
up with further Shireprojects in succeeding
years. Thus PVC pipe quickly gained acceptance
in rural and regional projects in NSW and Victoria
throughout the late 60's where PVC replaced
Asbestos Cement (AC) pipes which had a poor
performance history particularly in areas of
reactive soil conditions.
The 1 Q70' s saw spectacular growth in the use
of PVC pipe - in the order of a compounding 25%
pa. - with market substitution into SWV and the
commencement of I 00mm sewer house
connection and 150mm mains reticulation trials.

PVC was fully approved for sewer and SWV

applications during the 70's.

PROBLEMS:
1. The company face problems like2. Lack of training facility to workers,
3. Heavy competition from MNC,
4. Problem of electricity break down

Utilities: Machinery Power: The entire unit requires 50K. W.1-1. per day
Man Power: 21-person total required
Water:The water consumed is about 46.00 litersper day
Pollution: -Adequate pollution control measure
both for Air and water should be arranged
proper exhaust effluent treatment arrangement
provision of personal protective equipment to
employee etc should be kept in mind.
Transportation: -Transportation play important
role in the whole process whether it is local or
out side the state. For supply of manufactured
items from one place to another every industry
required good transport. For transportation there
should large number of trucks with sufficient
drivers. Drivers should be well aware of driving
and manufactured item in order to send product
from one place to another very safely and

soundly there should not more or less in quantity

of oil otherwise there can be dispute between
two party in order to avoid all these risk a
production house required a well developed,

and
beneficial
transportation.
Transportation itself has its own value or it is a
main part of technical aspect, technical aspects
totally
depend
upon
transportation.
Transportation should be good and healthy by its
all means.
Plant And Machinery:-In order to convert raw
material into finished Good plant machinery is
required. Plant machinery cost near about or
more than 50% expenses out of total cost. Plant
and machinery contain heavy implements, which
work due to power mainly known as electricity.

FINANCIAL ASPECTS In the estimation of the cost
of the project the requirement and cost of
various fixed assets land, building, plant &
machinery and other miscellaneous assets is
considered. Besides these cost there are certain
preliminary and pre-operative expenses, which
are incurred in procurement and installation of
these assets. These are also part of project cost.
Once project is setup, in order to run it working
capital
is required. Since the requirement of this margin
money is of long term in nature it is
also considered as apart of project cost.
Land Covered And The Cost of Land: -The total
covered area of the plant is estimated at 7,700
square meters. This includes the area required
for the main production plant utilities section
laboratory, administrative office, godown, and

public
conveniences.
Taking
this
into
consideration and provision roads and payments

This report provides a preliminary analysis of
polyvinyl chloride (PVC) free pipe materials in
construction. PVC reduction and elimination has
become a priority for many government
institutions, healthcare organizations, and design
firms due to the serious environmental health
impacts associated with the lifecycle of PVC. The
pipe market represents about 50% of total PVC
use in the United States. In the effort to provide
leadership on pollution prevention and the
protection
of
environmental
health,
the
significance of modeling PVC free alternatives
cannot be understated. Based on the inventory
of PVC pipe use provided, there are readily
available PVC free alternatives for all pipe
applications, many with a longer history on the
market than PVC. Primary alternatives include
ductile iron, copper, high density polyethylene
(HDPE), cross liked polyethylene (PEX), concrete,
and steel. Project specific design conditions may
make these alternatives either less or more
costly than the comparable PVC, but in general
the alternative materials are cost competitive.
Familiarity with a particular material is a large
driver in material
choice.
2) Summary of Pipe Sectors & Alternatives
The major pipe sectors are:

 Water - potable water delivery

Sewer - sanitary (waste water transport outside
of the building) and storm (site runoff transport)
Conduit /Ducting - protection of electrical and
communication wire, typically called conduit for
above ground uses, and duct for below ground
applications.
Drain/Waste/Vent (DWV)
transport within the building.

waste

water

Agriculture, Irrigation and Drainage - water

delivery for irrigation and ground drainage
For each of the major piping sectors, there are a
variety of alternative PVC free piping materials.
This report will look at the primary alternatives
(those alternative products with a large market
share) in each sector using the premise that the
